A Look at Famous Friends and How They Keep Their Friendships Strong



Why are celebrity friendships so fascinating? Many celebs have BFFs that have lasted several years, which is unusual by Hollywood standards. Here are five celebrity pairs of friends and what we can learn from each of them.




Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have been
friends since they were kids



*Ben Affleck and Matt Damon: Who could forget the moment Ben Affleck and Matt Damon won the Oscar for writing Good Will Hunting? They each took their moms to the awards show (which was so very cute) and it was hard to be cynical about two actors who wrote an excellent screenplay rather than complain about the lack of good parts available.

In addition to being best pals, Ben and Matt are one of our favorite celebrity bromances.

~ What we can learn: You don't need to compete with a friend. Even though Damon got the bigger part in Good Will Hunting, both his and Affleck's careers skyrocketed after winning their joint Oscar. They were (and are) best friends and this helped them collaborate to create a wonderful screenplay.

Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor were thought of as an
odd pair of celebrity friends


* Michael Jackson and Elizabeth Taylor: The friendship between the King of Pop and one of Hollywood's true icons struck many people as odd. But Jackson and Taylor both understood what it was like to be in the media spotlight from a young age, and this helped bond them together.

In the days following Taylor's death, Jackson's brother Tito acknowledged her friendship to Michael, saying, "Most memorable is her steadfast loyalty and unwavering friendship to my late brother Michael Jackson. Liz provided a sense of relief and comfort to my brother at various difficult times in his life, and I appreciate that, may she rest in peace."
